Introduction
Hello, Mr./Ms. (Shareholder). My name is                     , calling from D.F. King & Co., on behalf of Laudus Trust. I’m calling to follow-up on Laudus Rosenberg International Equity Fund’s recent distribution of proxy materials.
Mr. /Ms                    , this conversation is being recorded for quality control purposes.
Have you received the materials for the Laudus Rosenberg International Equity Fund’s Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for November 19, 2009?
IF NO — Then help the shareholder obtain the material he/she requires. If a NOBO, give him/her the 800# and have them call back when they receive the material. If registered, we will send the materials directly. In either case, make sure the address is correct, make any necessary corrections, and code the disposition as “14” or “15”.
IF YES — The Fund’s Board is asking you to consider a proposal to approve an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, as set forth in the proxy statement dated October 1, 2009. The board of trustees recommends that you vote in favor of this proposal. For your convenience, I can record your vote over the telephone right now. Will that be okay?
IF YES - Do you have any questions before we proceed?
Take time to answer all questions carefully. Do not give advice. Remind the shareholder that the fund’s Board has recommended that he/she vote in favor of the proposal. Questions should only be addressed by referring to the proxy statement and reading the appropriate sections.
Good, let’s proceed. Your vote will be recorded. I will ask you for your full name and address of record and ask you to confirm that you have received the Fund’s proxy materials and have authority to vote the shares. You will be mailed a letter confirming your vote which will provide instructions should you later decide to change your vote.
IF NO — Do you have any questions that I may answer?
Take time to answer all questions carefully. Do not give advice. Remind the shareholder that the fund’s Board has recommended that he/she vote in favor of the proposal. Most questions can be addressed by referring to the proxy statement and reading the appropriate sections.
Your vote is important. Please vote by signing, dating and promptly mailing your proxy card in the envelope provided. If you prefer, you can also vote by internet or touch-tone telephone. Simply follow the easy instructions sent with your proxy materials.
